A few years back I decided that I needed a break from London so on a whim booked a trip to Washington DC. I thought it would be a great place to sightsee, visit bars, and use my accent. I mean, who wouldn’t use something that they know is an advantage!
A little about me; at the time I was 36, 184cm tall, in shape/slim, short brown hair, not a model but yet not hideous – but you know, right.
As soon as I landed I jumped on a couple of apps and swiped away. I was completely honest saying that I was only in town for a few days, as I didn’t want to mislead anyone, and it made it clear. Was I looking for sex? Not totally, but if it happened then it was a bonus, right??
So I matched with a few and we were chatting, just the usual mundane stuff, including tips of where to go and what to do (that’s why it’s always good to connect with locals!). Anyway, I digress. I really enjoyed chatting to Sarah, and there was a definite spark as we bounced of each other. I thought why not, as even if nothing happens in person it will be a good night out.
